It figures I find an amazing library in a museum that holds many many resources for my research. So all I could do was take pictures of the pages, and write down other books in a list. But I have to say, I didn't want to leave. Ever. Just look! Inside and the view! (And the smell and books and all that good stuff). The library is part of the Adam Mickiewicz Museum of Literature, on the very top floor. I tell you, I felt so proud of my Polish going in. I had to communicate to the guard what I was looking for, and then he just hands me the phone to talk to the library, with no assistance from him (although he was extremely nice!). I know I made mistakes in my grammar, but to get through a formal, research related phone call, and to function in a library entirely in another language is something I am very proud of. At least for today.
I took two friends with me to show off Lublin. It was a bit odd being there but not staying, or studying.

Sorry for the Delay: The Artists
8:27 AMI can't believe how busy things got after my internship "officially" ended at Zachęta. I worked a festival for an entire day, which was a lot of fun, but tough being in the sun and working backstage for 14 hours, while being eaten by very ambitious mosquitoes. But the concert was great, and I really enjoyed meeting some of the most well known young contemporary artists in Poland.
